I am trying to limit entries into a master activity field to only those entries inserted via a script which attaches a date. That part works fine. I then locked the field so the user cannot modify in browse mode. I've just realized that by locking out the user they can no longer use the scroll bar to move through the body of the text. Most of these field contain a large amount of data so scrolling is crucial.

Any thoughts on how to have it both ways?

Thanks for your help.

Make a duplicate field that is a calculation of the original - calculation fields cannot be edited, but you can still permit entry and therefore scrolling will work.

That worked perfectly. Thanks!
